About 25 minutes from Dunnellon to The Gardens in Crystal River.

Families in Dunnellon are often weighing communities in Ocala against staying closer to the Nature Coast. The Gardens of Crystal River is about 25 minutes south, family owned, and offers both assisted living and memory care.

Staying on the coast side keeps a parent near the springs and the slower pace that drew many Dunnellon families here in the first place, and keeps visits short for relatives in town.

However you are weighing it, you reach the administrator directly and can see the community any day.

Dunnellon is known for the Rainbow River and Rainbow Springs, and it straddles the Marion and Citrus county line, so families here look in both directions for care.
